The Clinical Decision Unit (CDU) is recognized by our dedicated staff as a vibrant and dynamic unit that offers a unique blend of patient care experiences. The CDU is strategically divided into four distinct zones, essentially functioning as four units in one. These zones include:

• Cardiac and Neuro Stepdown: Specialized care for patients recovering from cardiac events and neurological conditions requiring close monitoring.
• Medical/Surgical (Med/Surg): Care for a wide variety of medical and surgical patients, offering diverse clinical experiences.
• Medical/Telemetry (Med/Tele): Treatment for patients requiring continuous cardiac monitoring.
• Observation: For patients admitted from the Emergency Department for 24-hour observation or further evaluation, operating with high patient turnover.

Staffing and Patient Ratios

• The nurse-to-patient ratio is typically 1:4, occasionally extending to 1:5 depending on patient acuity.
• The unit is supported by three Certified Nursing Assistants (CNAs).

Unit Culture and Environment

The CDU is characterized by a fast-paced, high-energy environment that demands adaptability and efficiency. Despite this, the staff fosters a supportive, collaborative, and family-like atmosphere where teamwork is essential.

Unique Opportunities

The hybrid nature of the CDU offers nurses the chance to gain experience across various specialties within one unit. With approximately 50 beds, it provides a larger capacity than standard Med/Surg floors, offering continuous learning and professional growth opportunities.

Whether you are experienced or new to nursing, the CDU provides a challenging and rewarding environment to develop your skills.
